Penultimate Farewell

We’re almost out of here. Last Saturday (8/29) was our farewell party with friends, neighbours and family coming down to the boat to see our new home and perhaps to understand a bit better what we’re up to. For many, this was their first opportunity to see Bojangles and to learn about why we think she’s a great boat to go to sea in and live aboard.

Hopefully, having seen the boat and heard our plans, there are fewer who question our sanity and fear for our safety. The boat is very comfortable to liveaboard and is outfitted for safe and comfortable offshore passagemaking.

About 60 folks came to the party and enjoyed some great food prepared by Chef Jeff and many also had an opportunity to swim in the club’s pool.

For us, this event was the perfect opportunity to say goodbye to close friends whom we won’t be seeing again until late summer 2010. We are thankful that we have so many good friends. We’ll miss them.

Here are some photos from the evening.

Cheers
